Shane Doan! He is an older, grittier zach parise, slightly less scoring touch, but definately the hard-nosed skater that can play in any situation. 2 years at $8mil i think could get him in. - Trade Greene, get a prospect and a pick for him. - other FA of interest: Dominic Moore Peter Mueller Rod Pelley.. jk

10. Brodeur will start 15/20 of the remaining games 9. Clarkson will hit the 30 goal mark 8. the Devils will have three 30 goal scorers (Kovy,Clarkson,Parise) 7. Parise will lead the devils in goals with 35 6. The devils will finish 6th in the east and face the Capitals in the first round 5. Zajac will center parise and kovalchuk by game 1 of the playoffs 4. Tallinder will not be back during the regular season 3. Hedberg will finish the regular season with more shutouts than Marty 2. The devils beat the bruins thursday 1. CAM JANSSEN WILL SCORE A GOAL!

Set aside the devil's financial problems cause we don't really know what's going on and what their budget plans are.. but this would be awesome: Devils send: Mattias Tendenby, Nick Palmieri, Jeff Frazee, Harry Young, 2nd round pick, 4th round pick to LA Kings for: Jack Johnson, Jon Bernier, and Jared Stoll LA gets potential offensive boost which they badly need, an AHL goalie who could be a decent backup considering Quick plays 70+ games, and a prospect and pick Devils get a top 4 all around solid dman, a goalie for the future, and a 3rd line rental center

the devils have always been an organization playing in the "now".. when a player is an upcoming free agent and they know they most likely won't be back, i.e gomez, they don't try to get something out of it by trading him instead of just letting him walk, they go for their goal to win the cup that season. I don't see why it would change as choosing a captain, they need a captain for this season. What if parise is captain, signs for 10 years, but doesn't like to be captain and loses it next year anyway.. what difference does it make.. the C will go to whoever lou and deboer choose, end of story.
